Dinky Toys 57/004 Oldsmobile 88
Oldsmobile 88 by Dinky Toys, No. 57/004. Near mint plus/boxed. Crisp box! From The QDT Vault.
Notes
A scarce model – and one of the small range of cars made by Dinky in Hong Kong, largely between 1965-67. All are 1:42 scale.
Attractively finished in white with a light blue roof, red interior. Complete number plates front and rear. Shiny spun wheels have suspension on the front wheels only (common fault). Model still sits well.
The colourfully illustrated card box is very attractive with a detailed picture of the car and a scenic backdrop. Shopkeeper’s price at one end. Barely any wear (storage ‘dip’).
These Hong Kong Dinky cars are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
